The article presents a prosopographical analysis of the 18th-century prefects of the Brotherhood of the Heart of Jesus from the Jesuit colleges in Lublin and Krasnystaw and the residence in Łaszczów. On the basis of personal catalogues – short (catalogus brevis) and three-year (catalogus triennalis) – a total of forty-seven priests have been identified who undertook the mission of spreading devotion to the Heart of Jesus. Their great mobility is remarkable. Most of them performed the indicated ministry only once during their stay in the order. The analysis of the catalogues also showed that the guardian of this confraternity could be any priest, regardless of age, seniority in the Society of Jesus, or tasks performed. In Lublin and Krasnystaw, most of the prefects of the Brotherhood of the Heart of Jesus were young teachers, while in Łaszczów the majority were Jesuits working in the field of traditional pastoral ministry.

Artykuł zawiera analizę prozopograficzną XVIII-wiecznych prefektów Bractwa Serca Jezusowego z jezuickich kolegiów w Lublinie i Krasnymstawie oraz rezydencji w Łaszczowie. Na podstawie katalogów osobowych tzw. krótkich (catalogus breves) oraz trzyletnich (catalogus triennalis), zidentyfikowano łącznie czterdziestu siedmiu kapłanów, którzy podjęli misję szerzenia kultu Serca Jezusa. Uwagę zwraca ich wysoka mobilność. Większość z nich wskazaną posługę pełniła jedynie raz w ciągu swojego pobytu w zakonie. Analiza katalogów wykazała również, iż opiekunem tego bractwa mógł być każdy kapłan niezależnie od wieku, stażu w Towarzystwie Jezusowym lub wykonywanych zadań. W Lublinie i Krasnymstawie większość prefektów Bractwa Serca Jezusowego stanowili młodzi nauczyciele, w Łaszczowie zaś jezuici posługujący na polu duszpasterstwa tradycyjnego.
The practice of women inheriting a property in 16th and 17th century peasant families was examined through an analysis of dozens of peasant wills. The problem addressed in the article – a micro-historical text – refers to peasant women living in different years in a number of villages located in, sensu lato, the Lesser Poland region (Polish: Małopolska). From the family histories shown in the texts of the last wills, it appears that a woman had the right to inherit, dispose of, and manage property. A young woman – a peasant's daughter – received both movables (things of daily use) and real estate (buildings or pieces of land) as an inheritance (including a dowry). She could also advance, becoming heir to the entire farm. Despite these rights, in a broad sense, out of principle, the female peasants held lower position than their brothers. Dying peasants, however, valued their spouses – thanking them for their work and care, they often bequeathed all their possessions to them.
